97' 850 / NA Clutch Kit on a Turbo

Post by cemonderoglu »

Hello,

I am swaping my AW50-42 transmission to M56 and at the same time i am replacing 13G turbo with 16T. The car already has all the supporting mods for 16T and after the swap, ecu will be remapped. So we are planning to get 250-300 whp and i have a problem about clutch.

I cant find turbo clutch kits anywhere, all the kits are on sale is for NA. So if i buy a new sachs replacement for 271494(NA kit number) is it gonna slip? 271810(Turbo kit number) or 272218(R kit number) will be the best i know but... Is there someone that knows a kit number for another car that uses M56? How i can solve the clutch problem ? Thank you for reading, merry christmas!
